I was doing the music to a documentary film recently, and Brian Eno was vaguely involved as he was friends with another guy composing the music with me (although we didn't actually use any of his material in the end, because, wonderfully weird as it was, he didn't even bother watching the film while he farted out his beautiful drones and glitches...) I somehow ended up having a jam with him because he was creating some nice gamelan-ey minimal loops, and intruding with some Nord-Lead 3-driven FM drones proved fairly irresistable. He was a nice guy, slightly quirky (when he came in he barely said hello-he just noticed some humming machinery and told the engineer to "record that now, they'll want to use it later") and starting producing some pretty horrid synth noises on a DX7-like soft synth thing. Our "track" ended up being 27 minutes long, and he was strangely happy with it. I've always been a big fan, so for that to come out of the blue was a rather wonderful surprise. Best get back to working in a shitty bookshop and smoking myself to oblivion now, now that's over and done and dusted. :-S |

Are you serious??? That's fucking awesome! |

It would be great if it actually came out in some form. Even though he suggested putting it out, I'm not getting excited until definate steps are taken for a release. Even though some cool things have happened in music as of late, so many things fall through. |

As long as you didn't follow through whilst sitting next to Eno, I've read he has a sensitive nose. |
||||||||
|

|
|
couldn't he have just not farted, instead of immediately not shitting his pants? |
||||||||
|
|

|

unless that's what you read as being "Jam with Brian Eno". |
||||||||
|

It could be an interesting ambient conceptual piece, Farting with Brian Eno, a serious of pan-sensory duets. Oh no, Swears will accuse me of being a budget Stephen Fry / Red Dwarf / some other "old" thing that's now "not cool". |

I know what it's like. My house is like that in the evening. I can't answer the phone in the livingroom. Apparently it's "too cold". |

i'm jealous now post mp3 damn you! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah man.. cut it up and make something of it. Send him a couple of versions and get his approval and then shop it around or put it up on your own. Can't hurt any... and fans of Eno will probably flock to it regardless |

"starting producing some pretty horrid synth noises on a DX7-like soft synth thing." Yes, I've heard he loves FM synthesis. God only knows why, it sounds shit most of the time. Still, cool story. |
||||||||

oh don't start dogging on FM. some of us learned alot from those DX-7 machines.. there was a time when they were considered LEADING EDGE!... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, FM synthesis can suck, but then again, my DX11 has the sweetest pads ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Oh, I know that. It's just one of those things where (unlike other "primitive" electronic instruments), I can't see (or rather hear) any charm to it and now we can do lush pads a lot better in other ways, I see no reason to use it. I only really use FM (at least in such a way that it's recognisable as FM synthesis) when I'm going for an old messed up sound. I think that particularly synth stabs done on it have a very unpleasent abbrasive quality (without actually being nasty/aggro enough that I'd want to use them for DnB or anything menacing). I really must finish off a few of those techno tracks for you. A couple of those use a lot of fm, but it's not really recognisable as such. |

Actually, though I can see where you're comming from, I made a lot of the dark drones for this film project using FM synthesis; it can produce some wonderfully metallic, dense, paddy sounds. I'm really in dept to a producer called "Ivor Guest" for these experiences. His myspace can be found here: |
